This week we take a look at Igeres Hakodesh 25, in which we ask a nudnik question: why does the Alter Rebbe choose to quote a less common pasuk to prove G-d’s omnipresence? In a very conspiracy-theorist-with-a-corkboard kind of way, we go through Midrash, Kabalah, philosophy, Musar, and Halacha, showing how this pasuk is the perfect choice to bring out every point the Alter Rebbe was trying to make simultaniously.

(The intention of this series is to attempt to bring out the Alter Rebbe’s intention by doing a deep dive into his (oftentimes niglah’dike) sources. Enjoy the shiur!)

Tanya Summary Shiur, Chapters 25b-26a of part 4. The intention behind these shiurim is to be able to have an overview of Tanya in digestible chunks. Often, it feels like each days Tanya shines on its own, but it’s easy to lose sight of the bigger picture without taking a step back. The goal of this series was (and is, continuing here on Spotify) to give an opportunity to step back and review the weeks Tanya in 10-15 minutes. So sit back, relax, and enjoy!

Welcome to a new series of shiurim! The intention of this series is to attempt to bring out the Alter Rebbe’s intention by doing a deep dive into his (oftentimes niglah’dike) sources.

This week we take a look at Igeres Hakodesh 24, which discusses talking in middle of davening. The fundamental question is, what exactly concerned the Alter Rebbe about talking during davening? We take apart the whole notion of talking in middle of davening and put it back together again, with the hope that by the end of it, we appreciate the inner mechanisms in a whole new light. Enjoy!
